Thanks Mom; thanks for the memories; you deserve a Special day to honor you.

  You were a treasure to behold;

no task was too difficult -- 

    never too busy to kiss a hurt and make it feel better!

 

You wore many hats;

 

you taught by example and knew how to eke out a living during the depression: 

 

We never felt poor;

 

  we felt secure in your love and knew everything was going to be alright! 

 

      You and Dad were something else!

 

  When a handshake sealed a deal and a man was as good as his word.

 

   

 

 

  You made life worth the living!

 

 

If we couldn't say anything good about someone,   we were not to say anything at all.

 

 

     --------   

Birds of a feather flock together so choose your friends well.

 

  Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

 

  Any job worth doing at all was worth  doing right!

 

Baking fresh loaves of bread,

 

  divinity candy,  

 

           playing the organ (after we were in bed)  

 

  when 9 p.m. was late,

 

  galore

 

  -when peonies were 'pineys' and gladiolas were 'glads' and so much more...

 

Again, thanks Mom.

January 2005

Note from Ann to all concerned:  I do take your prayer requests seriously. I do pray believing and knowing that distance is no problem with God, no wall is too high or too thick, that the Holy Spirit cannot come to your aid. I also know that Jesus is our intercessor knowing what is good for us and when my special prayer partner and I pray, we are basing results on the scripture: “Where two or more are gathered in my Name and agree on one thing, I will be in the midst of them.”

Scripturally speaking, we will prosper as our soul prospers. Another scripture which means a lot to me and I offer for consideration, “If my people will humble themselves and pray and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear their voice and come to their rescue.”

Some of my memorized verses which I rely on: 

  • Psalm 46:1  God is our refuge and strength, a present help in time of trouble.

  • Another favorite:  He that is within me (Holy Spirit) is greater than he (Satan) which is in the world.

  • Another favorite:  I can do all things through Christ, which strengthens me.

  • Another favorite:  Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil. (Because there couldn’t be a shadow unless there was a light and Jesus is that light.)

  • Another favorite:  Be of good cheer, for I have overcome the world.

 

Praise the Lord!
